Just a few notes from Nashville, none of which specifically mention Alex Rodriguez…

[2]• Robinson Cano has officially committed to play for the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic. A total of 32 players were announced as having committed to the WBC, but Cano was the only Yankees player on the list. I’m sure there will be others eventually.

• One name consistently coming up in wishful thinking for the Yankees is Padres third baseman Chase Headley, but a Padres official told Joel Sherman: “We’re not going to move Headley.”[6]

• Another infield depth candidate is Jeff Keppinger. His agent claims that teams are not at all hesitant to sign Keppinger [7]in the wake of his offseason injury. Could make sense for the Yankees in the right circumstance. The two have been connected in speculation.
